PSE is also pursuing the development of 500-kV, solar-powered generating facility at the Wild Horse site. PSE issued a request for proposals (RFP) for the design and development of the solar project in November 2006, with a target of completing the solar project by late 2007.

PSE's stated goal is to meet up to 10 percent of its customers' total electricity need with cost-effective, renewable resources by 2013.
